If consensus was not reached within a week, elections could not take place in coming April-May and then the country will slide into conflict, leader KC said this at a press meet organized by Nepal Press Union, Ilam, this morning.[break]
He made it clear that the NC would not forge consensus on the reinstatement of CA, participation in the present government and substances of constitution.
´Congress will not go to the government by compromising the party ideals for power. However, government leadership from outside the ruling alliance could be discussed´, he further said, adding the Congress would not go back from its claim for government.
Leader KC also accused the Unified CPN (Maoist) of being responsible to bring the country to political and constitutional vacuum, commenting that the Maoist recent remark of building consensus on substances of constitution within four days is merely a tactic to extend its stay in the power.

KC ruled out any chance to join the incumbent government and warned that the Baburam Bhattarai-led government would be swept away through struggle.
